This version of the Birth Year League is all in the family... choose one of the following - your father, mother, brother, sister, son or daughter. Using their birth year (I'm using my first born daughter - 1979), your player pool will come from the following four baseballreference.com lists:

Major League Baseball Died This Year
Major League Baseball Born This Year
Major League Baseball New Debuts
Major League Baseball Retirements

24 players on your roster MUST come from these 4 lists according to your family member's birth year and you can use any season of theirs... no minimums or maximums per list. The 25th player can be a "bonus" player from your family member's birth year. For example, Keith Hernandez doesn't appear on any list for 1979 but I could draft his 1979 season as my "bonus player".

I will post my team and the player connections to each list in the Theme Leagues Forum after I create the league. Each owner will have to post their roster and connections there as well in order to receive the league#.
